New National EV sales mandate

The Federal Government has just announced a new EV sales mandate for Canada.

One-fifth (20%) of all passenger cars, SUVs and trucks sold in Canada in 2026 will need to run on electricity under this new regulation. This ratio will increase to 60% of all light-duty vehicles sold by 2030 and to 100% by 2035.

As the demand for electric vehicles grows, so will the demand for EV charging stations and lead times for electrical upgrades and installation services. Overall pricing will almost certainly rise as a result of the increased demand. So, for those looking to become a EV charging station owner, this may be best time to get ahead of the curve.
